Patent CA-2633939-A1 (CA)
Title: Microwave heating applicator
Inventor: RISMAN PER OLOV
IPC: H05B6/74
Filed: 2006-12-12
Abstract: A new, comparatively small type of microwave system based on open-ended applicators is disclosed. The applicator according to the invention uses a main evanescent and a propagating mode in combination, where the combination results in a cancellation of the horizontal magnetic fields at the ends of at least two opposing walls.  The effect of this is that the fields propagating out of the applicator become concentrated to the applicator centreline (axis) region, provides an efficient heating of a load or assembly of loads, as well as a stable impedance matching of the system under variable loading conditions due to the mode evanescence, while not leaking energy between adjacent applicators. The applicator can also be used for direct feeding of an underlying small closed metal cavity, for providing (the same favourable) mode conditions to a load in this cavity.

Patent CA-2643908-A1 (CA)
Title: Hip protector implant
Inventor: SMIT ARNO
IPC: A61B17/74
Filed: 2007-04-13
Abstract: An implant system is described to decrease the risk of hip fracture in humans determined to be at increased risk for hip fracture, over a time span well over several years after implantation. This implant increases the size of the contact area on the proximal femur at the time of a fall, decreasing contact pressures and contact stresses. The implant may be able to absorb energy on impact or cause an increase of energy absorption by the soft tissues, thus decreasing the energy transfer to the proximal femur at the time of a fall. The implant may also strengthen the proximal femur, while minimizing stress shielding of the surrounding bone. In addition, it minimizes the risk of displacement should fracture occur, thus minimizing the risk of formal fracture surgery. The method of application minimizes risks associated with initial application of the implant.
